  How about WordPress setting up something like Google’s adsense, but calling it goodsense and just using ethical adverts rather than all the commercial stuff. You could trial it on WordPress.com and then role it out as a service ‘net wide to anyone.

  Then we could all make a little income in a decent way. Any supporters?

  I would support it provided that there’s enough income : )

  Surely it will be good. It can attract more people to use wordpress since user can profit from using it. I don’t see why this is a bad idea.
